This describes my dad. He's getting older, eyesight isn't what it once was, and he just plain likes larger screens anyway. He also has no need for 8-core processors, 32+ GB RAM, etc. But, he will not settle for a small screen.The machine is still smaller and lighter than the 2015 15" which I have and would hardly call burdensome. I did like the compact size of the 2019 15" though so I'm hoping it will be bought back as a lower tier machine with magic keyboard. I'm hearing more and more people saying they want this sort of large screened but not so powerful/ expensive machine for office productivity type work. It seems Apple's in a listening mood so hopefully they will also deliver on this!
